*OPEN LETTER TO GOVERNOR DAVID UMAHI ON HIS WILD, INFANTILE, AND UTTERLY SENSELESS ACCUSATIONS AGAINST MY PERSON* 

Copy: 
   
1.   The President, Federal Republic of Nigeria 
2.   Inspector – General of Police 
3.   Director – General, State Security Service 
4.   Chief of Defence Staff 
 
In a widely circulated media briefing on the 27th November after a formal Ebonyi State security council meeting, Governor Umahi stated as follows: 

“I want the media to note, that I reported an allegation that some Ebonyi people are engaging cultists and according to them some IPOB Members to start killing and causing crisis in Ebonyi State in the name of fighting Ebonyi State Government and the governor and their leader is Senator Anyim Pius Anyim and their members are Dr. Sam Egwu, Senator Obinna Ogba, Mr. Ali Odefa and others…...The same Senator Anyim Pius Anyim fought the former Governor Sam Egwu and many people were killed. 
…...I have also directed Security Agencies to ensure the implementation of policies on tinted glasses of vehicles in the state, the use of a siren and then their police escort…. If they try to fight the State, this will be their last fight, they will not fight again”. 

1.   I would not have bothered to respond to this gibberish by a sinking man but for the compelling need to put the records straight and forewarn the public about the sinister plans of a man who personifies everything ignoble, shameless and despicable.  
 
Gov. Umahi is pitiably delusional. He is a prisoner of his greed and inordinate ambition. Here is a drowning man looking for who to drag down with him. Gov. Umahi has made his worst mistake after his latest misadventure by taking on me and other noble and respectable sons of Ebonyi State who have served and continued to serve our dear State with resolute commitment, dedication and integrity. 
 
2.   The case at hand is his defection to APC on the 19th of November, 2020. The discerning public knows that he has been on the plan for a long time and when he decided to consummate it, he suddenly concocted an accusation against PDP, that PDP was not willing to zone Presidency to the South East. When he spews these allegations, he would not even mind whether they make sense or not. He did not have the mental capacity to reason that no party in less than two years into a new term would bring the next election unto the front burner. That even in APC where he has gone to, the issue of next election is not yet on the table as doing so would distract the government.  

3.   People who know Gov. Umahi know that he normally starts this way whenever he is hatching a sinister plan. He raises dusts, makes wild allegations and accusations against people just to divert the attention of the public before he strikes. It is public knowledge that Gov. Umahi had been planning his defection to the All Progressive Congress, APC for a long time. In his delusion, he believed his own lies that he is the only man who matters in Ebonyi State. He did not consult with anybody notable before consummating his defection to APC. After his defection, no person of note followed him.  

4.   Unable to contain and manage the unsavory reactions from the public he ran to my home in the company of some high-profile people, on the 20th of November 2020, and pleaded with me to defect to APC, saying that if I do, others will follow suit. I pointed out to him that his approach has made it almost impossible for anybody to defect. He pleaded with me that if I cannot defect now, I should not attend any PDP meetings, and I said no, I must attend PDP meetings as long as I am in PDP. He realized that he could not persuade anybody when he saw the crème of Ebonyi Elders and citizen that gathered for the inauguration of PDP Caretaker Committee. He could no longer sleep and declared war on every one who has refused to defect with him.  

5.   I would not have taken his present spew of baseless allegations seriously, but because I suspect he is under a spell and perhaps something is pursuing him. He may have been told that he will need to kill before he would achieve his present enterprise and so to build up a scenario for him to kill, he will need to spew allegations of killings even when they make no sense. I have no doubt that Governor Umahi may have been told that he needed blood to accomplish his present enterprise, otherwise how can a man in his 6th year as Governor of a State suddenly realise that a former President of the Senate, a former Governor of the State and two-time serving Senator Dr. Sam Egwu, Senator Obinna Ogba, two time serving Senator, are now cultists and IPOB members. Something is wrong somewhere.  

It is obvious that either something is pursuing Governor Umahi or that he is pursuing something. For those who know him well, please notice that his lips have shifted out of shape and his eye balls shrinking. Something is pursuing Gov. Umahi.  

Gov. Umahi’s modus operandi are well known and his moves are easily predictable. The three examples below will elucidate this point:
 
1.   The case with Pastor Ephraim Ononye 

Pastor Ononye was the pastor to Gov. Umahi’s campaign organization in 2015. Midway into his term, he requested the pastor to start praying for the next term. The pastor declined to be part of his second term agenda. He was so enraged that he walked the pastor out. The following day he accused the pastor of murder and that he was running an illegal school. He unleased security agents against the pastor. The pastor’s school with about 900 pupils was closed till today. On the 2nd of June 2017 while the church was having a night vigil with some widows, he sent security agents to go and close the church. They manhandled and threw the women out into the rain and seven days later, one of the women died. That wicked act has continued to hunt Governor Umahi till date. It is obvious that the spirit of error has come upon him. Gov. Umahi was told that the only way he could win the election was if he ate on the street. Governor Umahi quickly organized a State Banquet on the street at Udensi roundabout and Ebonyi people attended without knowing that it was a ritual dinner. Only Gov. Umahi knows how many Ebonyians that have died mysteriously after that dinner. 
 
Gov. Umahi is the only governor in Nigeria that organizes dinner on the street. Since I got to know the reason behind the street dinner, I stopped attending his functions. After he won the election, he arranged for his close associates to reconcile the pastor and himself. When he was asked why he did not keep his promises, he replied that he was not God that keeps promises. 
 
2.   The case of Prof. Bernard Ifeanyi Odoh 

Professor Odo was the first of the three SSGs he has had so far. When Prof Odo could not fit into his various schemes, he decided to resign with a widely publicized resignation letter. Governor Umahi was so offended and hit back by setting up a committee to probe the Agric loan disbursement committee which the former SSG chaired. The former SSG responded by writing to EFCC to thoroughly and properly investigate the Agric loan saga as he was ready to provide all information relating to the purported loan transactions. When Governor Umahi realized that the former SSG was not intimated but ready to spill the beans, he backed down and nothing till today is heard of that committee. He had since reached out to the former SSG for a truce but the man rebuffed him. The public should be aware of Gov. Umahi’s use of wild allegation as a weapon. I’m sure if the former SSG had agreed to a peace meeting he would have apologized and if you ask him why do you lie, he will say that he is not God that speaks the truth. 

3.   The case of Charles Otu 

Charles Otu is a journalist in Abakaliki, he wrote an article that was offensive to the Governor. On the 3rd of June 2017 while he was at a newspaper stand, a bus with the inscription “Akubaraohia Youth Vanguard” pull up and at gun point he was dragged into the bus and taken to one corner of Government House, Abakaliki where he received severe beatings until he passed out and they dropped him on the street, up till today, Mr. Otu is yet to regain his full composure. When Gov. Umahi boasted to the two journalists, he accused of offensive articles that “if they think they have the pen that he will show them that he has  *KOBOKO”*. Charles Otu’s treatment is what Gov. Umahi meant by KOBOKO. The two journalists, Mr. Chijioke Agwu and Mr. Peter Okutu should thank their God that the public outcry that greeted the Governor’s outburst saved them from the Koboko treatment, who knowns whether they would have come out alive as many never did. But for lack of space, the examples can go on and on. 

The purpose of this response is to alert the public and the security agencies in particular on the schemes of Gov. David Umahi so that they will read him upfront and be wary of him and his allegations. Accordingly, all concerned should note as follows:  
 
a.   I believe that Gov. Umahi needs help. He was not in this shape when I picked him. His present behaviour is certainly not normal. His behaviour and utterances are strangest whenever he puts on the costume for the new enterprise – an oversized white Agbada and an elongated red hat that over sizes his head. I want to advice his brothers to seek psychiatric and psychological help for him before it is too late. 
 
b.   The only offence we committed is that we refused to follow Gov. Umahi in his political adventure. We do not know when belonging to parties of one’s choice has become an offence against a Governor or means fighting a Governor.  
c.   It is clear that Gov. Umahi may have been told that he needs to kill a high-profile person in order to achieve his mad ambition. Ebonyians should be wise and those he is preparing to use for the killings should know that after using them he will also plan to kill them to cover his track. Examples abound. 
 
d.   Security agencies, the Honourable Attorney General of the Federation and Judges should note that Gov. Umahi had boasted as follows: 
 
- That one of the gains of his defection is that he has been promised absolute use of the security agencies for all that he desires to do. 

- That the Hon. Attorney General of the Federation is his friend and will soon visit Abakaliki the second time and that he will use him to deal with those opposed to him using the EFCC. 

- That he will extensively use the courts to not only make it impossible for PDP to function in the state but also to frustrate those opposed to him including sending them to prison. My advice is that all those concerned should be wary of Gov. Umahi so that he will not taint their soul and ruin their careers, because all his actions and schemes have black sides. 

e.   To notify the public that I fully understand that what Umahi meant by  *“this will be the last fight I will fight”, is that he will kill me so that I will not live to fight again*. While I invite the security agencies to note this plan, I want to assure Gov. Umahi that my blood is not available for him in pursuit of his ambition. 

f.   To assure the street dinner Governor that no amount of blackmail or intimidation will compel any of us to follow him. 

g.   Gov. Umahi should know that there is a record of those who died mysteriously, violently, and those who just disappeared since he became governor of Ebonyi State. 

On my own part, I will continue to pray for him to recover from his delusion. 
 
God bless Nigeria.

He credited his survival to God I am happy about that. Some spent more money and still had much in their bank to spend yet they died. Thank God

*Governor Dave Umahi: A Leprosy To The Growth And Development of Ebonyi State University*

It is five years and five months of Umahi as a Governor of Ebonyi State and the Ivory Tower ever valued and cherished by all and sundry can’t breathe again because of his unfriendly and callous approaches to handling of the activities of the University.

Recall that the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) is an umbrella body housing the academic staff of public universities in Nigeria (Federal and State). As a union of intellectuals, ASUU seeks not only the socio-political and economic interest of its members within the framework of promoting the cause of university education in Nigeria, but also holds government to a standstill over the revitalization of Nigerian Universities.

In the wake of this struggle, government saw the need to establish Tertiary Education Trust Fund (TETFUND), which is simply a fund for training and retraining of the university staff and revitalization of universities’ infrastructural development both the federal and the state owned universities. Regrettably, the information available on our desk is that the sectional TETFUND monies (billions of naira) allocated to Ebonyi State University has been diverted severally by the same man who is vehemently bent on destroying the labor of our heroes. When we went for our fact finding tour in the University, a concerned staff who preferred anonymity took us to the abandoned TETFUND faculty building and said “…this is the handiwork of a man that refused to fund the university, yet can’t allow a TETFUND allocation of the university to be.” In a nutshell, Dave has STIFFED and SNUFFED the Ivory Tower that was once the pride of the salt city.

We also gathered that five good years of Dave’s reign as the governor of Ebonyi State, staff promotion (Academic and Non-academic) of the university has been stagnated, and few of his cronies that were promoted never had any financial benefit as at the time of filling this report. Consequently, there has been an inglorious exodus of the academic staff of the university to the AE-FUNAI, many of which were trained in Europe and America by the founder of the Ivory Tower Sam Ominye Egwu, PhD, and whose mantra was “Education is the solution to our backwardness.” Oh! We have lost it!!

We were informed too, that as at 2015 governor Dave took over office, that the subvention of the university was three hundred and fifty million naira (#350,000,000), but has slashed it to one hundred and seventeen million naira (#117,000,000). And I ask, who advised Dave of this inglorious visit in EBSU? Aren’t you aware that university is not a profit making venture, rather a long term investment plan geared towards human development? For anything to worth the name “development”, must hitherto, be able to have a corresponding impact on the lives of those involved. If there are building in schools for instance, without a corresponding manpower to teaching the students, it is simply “hollow” and baseless. On this note Your Excellency, we know that your children are in Europe and America, and consequently has nothing to do with the Ivory Tower, but look with pity upon us, our younger ones, and generations unborn and consolidate on the dreams of the founder-SENATOR, EGWU because undoubtedly, education is the most potent weapon for any country that wishes to develop.

And know it too, that the political Professor, Chigozie Ogbu whom you handpicked as the Vice Chancellor of the University of course, he is your brother is not a regular university class room Professor, hence has no university administrative acumen to carry on with the extant rules guarding university system in Nigeria. Hopefully, you did it because of your calculated and envisioned plan to snuff the Ivory Tower. How can a University be so down not to have a functional WiFi even in the administrative building? During our fact finding tour,

I don't know why most men keep saying marriage is not important. What happened when you're old? who will stand by you? Who will take care of you? We all need each other. In as much as marriage is not the ultimate, it's very important.

marriage is very important to me oh! Will you marry me

SmartyPants:
I haven't done it myself and I live in a different country so I'm not sure how things work in Nigeria but what I can tell you is this:

1. Find an affordable school - some may take 4-5k Canadian dollars per year and most schools will not demand full payment up front
2. Your ticket won't cost you more than 1k usd

Start reaching out to schools, most will provide you information on accommodation and living expenses.

I have a friend who hustled his way to the US will a lower budget though he was fortunate to receive a partial scholarship. You can do it.

Chief, I sent you a pm

Hello everyone, this is my first time seeking advice here on nairaland and this is something I just can't get my mind around..
My relationship with my boyfriend will be 2yrs next month and our relationship have only come this far as a result of understanding and love we have for each other... He's a student just like me and all this while I never asked him for money unless he gives me himself, but he doesn't always do so
We are in our finals and he has been working throughout the corona period and I think he has been able to save money... I need money right now and I don't know how to ask him..
I never asked all this while when school was in
session because I don't want to put pressure on him... I don't know how to tell him that I need money because he won't give me voluntarily..

upon all the online business you have been advertising on nairaland you still want to be a burden on the young man. Ask your parents for money joor.

Please I need guide.
I am about to purchase Unilag form for Masters program in biochemistry, and one of the requirements is first degree certificate( not statement of result); but I only have statement of result. I have tried to approach my university for my Certificate, but Universities are not yet opened due to Covid-19.

I do not know if I would be selected, should I still go ahead to enrol with the statement of result. I am confused on what to do now, because I can't afford not to commence the program this year.

I sent you a pm I stay somewhere around Nnodo boys secondary.

Someone told you that if you fail your 2nd Mbbs exam she will leave you and you passed and continued with her

Giwoni:
Good day NLanders
I'm a medical student, and gf( not sure what to call her now) is in MLS. We are both in same level (500l).

It all started in 2015, when we gained admission into the University. We began to read together and subsequently I started teaching her . Later on, she made me to read and susummarize her course topics (which I did for up to her 300 level) for her as she usually found it difficult to read with textbooks and understand the contents. Months before my 2nd MBBS examinations, I began to notice changes in her attitude and behaviour towards me, up to the point that she told me that if I did not pass that examinations that, she will forget about me. But as God may have it, I passed successfully.

Financially, it started right in year one as I celebrated her and her mummy's Christmas from my own pocket, It got to a point that I usually give her her money almost every day ( for up to 5yrs) Whenever, I'm traveling in any of our vacations, I usually give money for upkeep until I'm back.
In 300l, I bought her gift worth almost 30k and also celebrated her birthday which she demanded I get her 'point and kill cat fish' that cost 9k.
I usually pay for her textbooks and seminar work as we are all in medical school, I really do a lot for her, as she always told me she would never leave me right from yr 1 to 500l after which she started telling me, their people from Anambra will not let her marry people from Ebonyi State.

She's has known this for all her life , but decided to bring it up just now, when I'm beginning my marriage plans with her, She's started giving me unnecessary excuses in one form or the other.

In 400L, my elder brother told me that I should leave my medical school here to go and study the same medicine abroad. Because of her, I told him that I want to finish my school here since I am already in 400 level. That after my MBBS degree, I can then go abroad for my Masters degree...

This January, my elder brother told me that since I would be graduating in 2022(which supposed to be 2021but due to strike before the 2019 election) which is two years time, that I should be planning to get married before I leave this country.

This made me to ask her again if we are ending up together and she told me that she has to seek for her mother's consent, and would give me a feedback.

Before, she travelled ( this is just before the lock down) as she was complaining that she does not have any money on her to eat and she want to go and learn how to plait hair which will cost her #8,000, I gave her #16,000. The next day after collecting the money, she told me that she received a call from her mother that she must come back to her State and she travelled with that money without learning anything.

Yesterday by 8:24pm, I called her to tell me the outcome of her mother's discussion with her. She told me that her mother insisted that she cannot marry an Ebonyi man, and she cannot go outside her mother's decision.

In conclusion, she told me that she cannot marry me.

Well, as expected, I'm bracing myself up for insults, ( I really don't mind this right now) but amidst the insults, pls advice a brother who's fighting emotionally.
thanks
